Fuck me, it was hard to figure out country of origin for this game. Co-developed, where Arxel Tribe was founded by Slovenians but the names in credits didn't match up and I had to find company history to find out they established a subsidiary in France (with no indication of which part of the company developed this game). The French however, were credited with all publishing/marketing things (with the exception of Art Director & Executive Producer) with the rest being Slovenian, so I made the choice to put Slovenia as country of origin.

Russian* misremembered, its a ukrainian developer

Discussed a little bit here at the end of page 1. Untranslated however, only in Russian. It's a game I'm interested in translating into English eventually.

I have an original copy being shipped to me soon.

Thank you, that is interesting. Please make a thread when you decide to start translating it, that would be great. Could be unearthing a true gem. Super cool you're having one sent to you. You speak Ukranian? Or is it similar enough as a slavic language to Russian to get the gist for the sake of vidya?

The game is in Russian, not Ukrainian (the developers were just based in Ukraine). I'm ~B2 level in Russian, and my girlfriend is a native speaker of both languages + many friends for when I need some clarification on how to properly convey the meaning in English (when help is needed). Although, Ukrainian wouldn't be an issue either. It wont be done for a while however, considering I'm already translating another game but it's definitely on my to-do list.

That is super cool. God speed on these endeavors. You are translating World of Chaos, judging by your quote. Looking forward to it!
